Energy saving
EVOKE-3 is part of the PURE EcoPlus product family, designed and manufactured to minimise
power consumption when the unit is switched on and to use less than 1 Watt in standby. Two
options are available:
Energy saving On
Select ‘On’ to switch on the energy saving standby mode. The radio will enter a low power
standby mode 70 seconds after you press the Standby button. Energy saving standby mode
disables the following non-essential standby functions in order to save power:
EPG schedule information is not collected in standby. However, when the radio is
switched on and you tune to a DAB station the radio updates EPG schedules for all the
stations that broadcast an EPG in the Multiplex (group of stations) to which the station
belongs. For example, if you tune to a BBC station in the BBC National DAB multiplex,
EPG schedules for all the BBC stations in that multiplex will be regularly updated where
available.
The remote control does not operate in standby (it will not switch the radio on) but can
still be used to cancel a sounding alarm.
The display is disabled in standby and you cannot access the standby menu. The clock is
updated and all alarms and record timers that you have set will still sound from standby.
If you fit the optional ChargePAK (see page 13) the unit will always switch into energy saving
standby mode when you press the Standby button, as long as the unit is not connected to
mains power. Any alarms that are set will still sound.
Energy saving Off
Select ‘Off’ to switch off the energy saving standby mode. If an SD card is fitted, EVOKE-3
regularly collects EPG schedule information in standby from all the multiplexes that broadcast
it, which increases standby power consumption. The remote control, standby menu and
display all operate in standby.
Hints and Tips
(>>/<<) DAB Secondary services
Secondary services accompany some stations, providing extra information or alternative content
and may only be broadcast at certain times. If a station has secondary services available, the
station shows ‘>>’ next to its name in the station list and the secondary service appears next to
the station in the list. A secondary service has a ‘<<’ before its name in the station list.
(?) Inactive or unavailable DAB stations
Inactive or unavailable stations are those which appear on the station list but are not currently
available. Inactive stations have a ‘?’ before their name on the station list. If you select a station
which has this symbol, your radio tries to tune in or returns to the previous station.
Display says ‘ No stations available’
Try adjusting your aerial or radio position. Use Autotune to search for stations.
I can’t delete a folder on the SD card
This may happen if there are other non-MP3/MP2 files in that folder. You can view these files and
delete them, if required using a PC to access the SD card.
My recording has a strange name
This can happen if you modify a recording initially set up from EPG as it will use the programme
name originally selected. In this situation it is recommended that you set up a new recording rather
than modifying an existing one.
